There's an unadulterated joy in the re-teaming of those fast-talking "Wedding Crashers" Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson, a wholesome novelty in their playing laid-off salesmen forced to do what millions of Americans have had to do in the past six years - reinvent themselves.

We've missed the patter, the Red Bull-fueled banter that was Vaughn's bread and butter before Jennifer Aniston and "Fred Claus" sucked away his soul. He came up with this zeitgeist tale of pals Billy (Vaughn) and Nick (Wilson), told they're over and done with when the watch company they worked for folds.
